I'm currently working on a piece on why the French League (with the exception of Lyon) is weak when compared with the National Team...I'd mainly just like to get a few different opinions just out of interest to see what the general feeling is!

Firstly, it's because the teams don't have so much money to attract stars.
Secondly, it's because the teams let their stars go when they have already been looked promising for a small amount of fee.

Seeing the top French team being humped at home 3-0 by a "Pub Team" then watching the national team being trounced in 2 matches by the international "Pub Team".
And what ATW said :thup:

IIRC, the French league struggles to attract talent because their taxes are a lot higher than Spain, England and Italy for high earners like footballers.
